Quick Start

• Signup for DataStax Astra, or login to your already existing account.

• Create an Astra DB Database if you don't already have one.

• Create an Astra DB Keyspace called sag_nextjs_fullstack in your database.

• Generate an Application Token with the role of Database Administrator for the Organization that your Astra DB is in.

• Click the 'Open in Gitpod' link:

• Once the app is finished launching in the Gitpod IDE, copy the env.example file to a file named .env and fill the required values in from your Application Token and Astra DB connection settings.

• Start the example by running npm run dev in the Gitpod console.
